Document requirement of Git v2.28.0 for strong consistency

Patrick Steinhardt requested to merge pks-praefect-git-v2.28.0 into master

What does this MR do?

With release v13.5.0, Gitaly is migrating away from voting on transactions via the pre-receive hook to the reference-transaction hook. As this hook only exists in Git v2.28.0 and later, the use of strong consistency thus mandates this version.

Adjust the documentation to spell out this new requirement.
